I'm having a really hard time figuring out sport this team plays, probably not helping is the fact that the article appears to be based on a poor and only loosely related translation from the German Wikipedia. That being said, I'm also having a hard time believing that the subject is notable, "Massachusetts Rangers" and "Massachusetts Rangers team" only turn up a single related hit on google - this article. From the referenced de.wikipedia article, it looks like the team's only possible claim to notability is that a few of their players played in the 1933 United States team in the World Hockey Championships, but notability is not inherited. - 2 ... says you, says me 01:27, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
